In addition to this long overdue alarming announcement, it turns out that most Americans have no idea of the destruction and devastation that’s coming soon.  Mass media (no longer independent and now owned by greedy corporations) in the United States only covers Climate Change when there’s a disaster, and Republicans deny facts and truth, intentionally deceiving Americans to protect the fossil fuel crime syndicate that owns them.  

We’ve blasted past the 1.5 C or 2.7 F (1 degree celsius = 1.8 degrees farenheit) agreed to by most of the world in December 2015 at the Paris Accord.  At this point, it’s almost certain we’ll barrel through 2.0 c on the way 3.0 c.  And scientists are projecting the Earth will hit 2.0 c in 2035.

Just got this yesterday, thanks to @clearlyclinical! Even though I myself am not a mental health professional, it still gave me a lot of insight into how I can help myself and others in a situation of tragedy. And this is of extreme relevance in today's age of climate disasters. Also, thanks to instructors Dr. Susan Hall, PhD, JD and Dr. Robert Scholz, LMFT, LPCC. #DisasterMentalHealth #DMH #MentalHealth #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthawareness #selfcare #selflove #selfrespect #tragedy #aftertragedy #disaster #disasters #psychological #psychologicalfirstaid #clearlyclinical #climatedisaster #climatedisasters #disasterrelief #disasterrecovery #disasterresponse (at Clearly Clinical) https://www.instagram.com/p/CggBbm7pmiN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

At NY Auto Show, Public Citizen And Mighty Earth Pressure Toyota And Hyundai To Clean Up Supply Chains by ERIK MCGREGOR Via Flickr: At the New York International Auto Show, activists from Public Citizen and allied organizations unveiled a banner reading “Toyota: We need zero emissions, not zero progress” in front of Toyota Motor Corporation's exhibition space. The action comes days after the organization, along with over 50 other consumer protection, health, and environmental groups, sent an open letter to Toyota CEO Koji Sato, calling for the company to move quickly toward building fossil-free vehicles and eliminating human rights and environmental damage from its supply chains. In addition, Mighty Earth and The Sunrise Project along with local climate organizers staged an action protesting Hyundai’s use of dirty coal in its supply chain. Despite Hyundai’s claims about using "sustainable materials", the automaker has made almost no progress on phasing out the coal-based steel and aluminum used in its vehicles. The civil society groups called on the world’s third-largest automaker to completely eliminate coal power from its material supply chain, address human rights abuses in its supply chain. and stop the use of dirty, high-carbon aluminum and steel to make truly clean electric vehicles (EVs). #ActOnClimate #Activism #ClimateChange #ClimateCrisis #ClimateDisaster #ClimateEmergency #ClimateFamilies #CorporateGreed #DirectAction #DisasterCapitalism #EnvironmentalJustice #FossilFree #InsureOurFuture #NYC #NewYork #OffFossilFuels #StopTheMoneyPipeline #activists #climateaction #climatejustice #defundclimatechange #disruption #toyota #PublicCitizen #NewYorkAutoShow #NYIAS #NYIAS2024 #hyundai #MightyEarth © Erik McGregor - [email protected] - 917-225-8963

Apparently most of our houses are ill-equipped to handle the climate disaster breaking over us. #architecture #construction #climatedisaster #poorhousing #poorisolation #outwalking #outwriting #yesiwrite

Meteorologists pointed out that February 2021 was the month of temperature contrasts worldwide In February 2021, the temperature below average prevailed over most parts of the USA. The states of Kansas, Arkansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, & Oklahoma ranked February 2021 as the 10th coldest February in the history of observation. In 2021, North America had the 20th smallest temperature for February since 1909 and the coldest February in 27 years. Scientists determined that the temperature in most parts of Scandinavia, North America, & North Asia was 5.4°F below average for February. The Pacific Ocean, parts of the southern oceans, and Australia had notably cool temperatures for February as well. Oceania didn’t stay behind and had its coldest February in 9 years. Snow cover varied from country to country. North America had its 4th largest snow cover in February ever, Eurasia had the 14th largest snow cover in February. February 2021 was also a month of contrasts. Thus the temperature in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres was 1.51°F and 0.81°F respectively above average for February. The average worldwide surface temperature in February was 1.17°F above the XX century average, making it the 16th highest for February since 1879. In Eastern Canada, most of Europe, and southern & northeastern Asia the temperature was 3.6°F above average. #allatraunites #creativesociety #weather #climatecrisis #synchronization #cataclysms #climateapocalypse #globalclimatechange #climatechange #climatecontrol #climateemergancy #severeweather #forceofnature #naturaldisaster #climatedisaster #climatetruth #interestingfacts #climatenews #climatefacts #cold #newrecord #usa #weatherusa #weathernews #coldestweather #coldweather https://www.instagram.com/p/CNHbPe0AgGb/?igshid=1xymlplbrbzv4

The climate models initially used by scientists forecast significant changes by 2050 through the end of the century.  Current technology, information and data sets have changed that timeline to 2030, sooner than expected.  

And not only for the Antarctic.  Melting of the Greenland ice sheet, the permafrost and sea ice in the Arctic, glaciers in Europe and around the world, severe droughts, sea level rise - ALL happening faster than expected.  El Nino is expected to intensify temperature increases MAKING THE NEXT FIVE YEARS THE HOTTEST ON RECORD.  

A well-known climate scientist and activist said to put a note on your refrigerator door that says “We’re running out of food”.  Leave it there, don’t take it off.  It’s a reminder to prepare NOW for worldwide food supply disruptions due to coming crop failures.  

Global starvation and malnutrition “at biblical proportions” according to the United Nations. Hundreds of millions of people are already on the edge - double the number of people prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Last Laugh

What a time…

We had a very smokey week before escaping to Nashville to visit Grandma. This new abnormal is very worrisome. It’s heartbreaking to hear of all the people who have lost lives and homes. And the toxic smoke in the Bay Area is suffocating. What will it take to end fossil fuels to save this planet??
